The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

lizgdal,

We must be talking about two different things. I'm not interested in that Nasdaq graph. I am trying to reconstruct Robbie's BCC signal which clearly is derived from SPY closing prices. I am currently working on the part that has to do with New Highs and New Lows which GTR1 shows as:

Create [PcntNHC252]: [100*[[Sum [[[Closing g-price; quote_lag=0 days]/[Highest closing g-price over 251 days; lag=1 days]] > 1 ? 1 : 0] at step4]/[StockCount]]]
Create [PcntNHC252WMA9]: [[Weighted Sum of [PcntNHC252] over 9 days (daily weights=9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1); lag=0 days]/[Weighted Sum of [1] over 9 days (daily weights=9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1); lag=0 days]]
Create [PcntNLC252]: [100*[[Sum [[[Closing g-price; quote_lag=0 days]/[Lowest closing g-price over 251 days; lag=1 days]] < 1 ? 1 : 0] at step4]/[StockCount]]]
Create [PcntNLC252WMA9]: [[Weighted Sum of [PcntNLC252] over 9 days (daily weights=9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1); lag=0 days]/[Weighted Sum of [1] over 9 days (daily weights=9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1); lag=0 days]]
Create [NHNLDiff]: [1*[PcntNHC252WMA9] - 1*[PcntNLC252WMA9]]

I see I still have to bring the part about [PcntNHC252WMA9] so my nap time revelation as I described earlier is not quite complete.
